Before and After - A Client Story

Class Announcements

Client Spotlight-Gen Kovacs

gen kovacsDo you ever wonder what people do after they spin their hearts away at 7am??  Gen Kovacs has been one of Kirk's regulars for many years.  You would never know from her mild-mannered and youthful demeanor that she is a powerful executive helping others.  Here's her story:

 

I am an immigration attorney specializing in lawful permanent residency (greencards), citizenship, cases before Immigration Court and before the Department of Homeland Security. My entire legal career has been dedicated solely to immigration law.

 

I opened my own office in September. Located between immigration court and the Federal building. Here is the contact information:

 

Law Office of Genevieve B. Kovacs

453 South Spring Street, Suite 1000

Los Angeles, California 90013

Tel: (213) 622 - 3330

Fax: (213) 622 - 3335

 

FYI, I share an office with another attorney who handles Civil Rights and Personal Injury cases.

Happy Hump Day!


It's the middle of a beautiful week in our lovely city-so many golden hours worth of 70-degree sunny days and balmy nights ahead.  It's starting to be time to shed more layers of clothing and show off those physiques you all have been working so hard to get tight and fit.

robert margouleff  Hey Good Lookin'

Inspiring transformation

 Let's start out by showcasing our inspiring story for the month.

Robert Margouleff, a former music producer whose clients included DEVO and Stevie Wonder, has been training with trainer, Kyle Benner, for about 4 years.  Working out 3x/week, Robert went from 248 to 171 pounds and chiseled a finer frame at the same time.  He loves to show off his bulging biceps with righteous pride. 

 

Kyle runs him through a whole body routine essentially turning Robert's body into a fat-burning machine. 

 

Robert is an inspiration for us all-it's never too late to get fit.  Robert started to get serious with nutrition about 2 years ago and has been seriously rocking it the past year and a half.  Robert is 66 years old and has never looked or felt better in his life.  You're THE rock star, Robert! 

 

Others who have been working on transformations include:  Philip B-have you seen him lately?!  Watch out for his story in our next newsletter.

Doug Blasdell's Legacy

Doug's website is now up to help encourage awareness and participation in his Outreach Program www.douglasblasdell.org. 

Don Scott, a close friend of Doug's, received a $5,000 donation this week to Doug's Outreach Program.  His generous friend said he would donate another $5,000 if we can raise $5,000 more before April 30, 2007.

 

So please, make a donation today or pass this along and encourage anyone and everyone you know.

 

Don also wants to sincerely thank Aaron Krach of NBC/Universal for disseminating information regarding Doug's Outreach Program on the BravoTV.com and OUTZoneTV.com sites.  Although the Work Out fan's blogs are heart-breaking, they are actually mentioning the Douglas Blasdell Outreach Program!

Antonio Rocks the House

 

I want to share a note from one of our veteran spin instructors, Andre Birotte Jr who spins his dancy, soulful tunes every Saturday morning at 8am:

 

"I had to share this with you - So we're in class today just doing our thing and we get to our last run of the day, "show me what you got" by Jay-Z.  Around that time, Antonio(at least I think that's his name) came in the room to give me the pink slips for folks who are near the end of the series.  Antonio starts feeling the music and next thing we know, he went into a dance routine that simply put, ROCKED THE MUTHA-FUNKIN HOUSE DOWN!!! we're talking spins, hand waves and even flips - the class just went wild!!!  And like the true performer simply bowed and disappeared. 

 

When I went out to thank him for rockin' da spot, he was gone.  I don't think I've ever seen him before and from what I understand, he works during the week.  Would you please pass on my heartfelt thanks for just killin' it today"

 

Peace

 

Andre

 

Kudos to Antonio for sharing his bright light and smooth moves in class.  Antonio rules the front desk roost and works Tues-Fri from 9-4pm.  Have him teach you a step or two, why don't you?

 Best Dressed List

jon jordan, me and jayOur first member on this newly minted list is none other than (drumroll, please) Jon E. Jordan!  Always impeccably appointed, Jon can be seen in the gym sporting the most stylin' set of coordinated sweats-wait-you can't even call these sweats.  He's too cool a cucumber in his fine gym wear.  Not sweating a bead, Jon consistently shows his class and professionalism by wearing gym appropriate wear that is an example to all of us. 

 

Here Jon relaxes in his typically chic sartorial way with Mylene and Jay at Tracy and Sam Upton's post wedding party.
